It is interesting that Jeremy Corbyn has been an MP for 42 years and led the opposition for 5 years.

He's been on Question Time once.

Nigel Farage, 44 times.

Our Media is corrupt, corrupt to the core.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇵🇸 I am proud that the Scottish Parliament has overwhelmingly voted for our motion to call for the recognition of the State of Palestine.

Scotland stands proudly in solidarity with the people of Gaza in the face of genocide.

Happy Birthday to Alan Turing, born on this day in 1912. Turing was a genius and a computing pioneer who helped England crack the Nazi’s enigma code during World War II. The country repaid him by having him chemically castrated for being a homosexual.

Interesting that people who spray paint planes can get banned as terrorists in 24 hours.

But people who burn people alive or dump sewage for profit never ever even get stopped from doing business.

Tesco could pay every worker an extra £10,000 and still make a profit.

British Gas could pay every worker an extra £35,000 and still make a profit.

Shell could pay every worker an extra £300,000 and still make a profit.

It is the billionaires who are ripping you off.

All those SNP Scotland-only policies? Free elderly/teens bus travel, free prescriptions, free personal care, mitigating two child benefit cap, lower council tax, and so much more. Unionists of principle should surely refuse to accept them, no?

And anyone who is even thinking of voting Reform in Hamilton, Stonehouse or Larkhall next week, only do so if you’re proud to be bought and sold by Britnat gold and happy to join the parcel of rogues in your nation. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿♥️
If only Labour was still a Scottish party, as it was when it was founded by these two political giants, Keir Hardie and Cunninghame Graham, who later founded the SNP. It even had the motto Wha Daur Meddle Wi Me on its pledge card. Now it should read Bought & Sold for English Gold

Scots voting for Reform are people voting to throw more petrol on their house fire knowing their insurance is never paying out but they like the colour of the flames.

We are about to add more information to our map, showing the donations that MPs are receiving from people and companies linked to the private healthcare sector. And... we are going to make a lot of noise about what individual politicians are doing. Please could you share this, and follow us? 🚨💙

The SNP is scrapping peak rail fares across Scotland - for good.

From September, Hamilton commuters to Glasgow will save £760 a year, and those from Larkhall £910 a year.

We’re cutting costs, putting money back in your pocket, and focusing on what matters to you.

The people who are claiming the most benefits in the UK.

1. King Charles - £500m a year.
2. The 150 Billionaires - Dodging £300m a year each in tax.
3. MP's - Claiming nearly £50k each in personal untaxed benefits.

These are totally unnecessary benefits we need to crackdown on.

I hated racism then.
I hate racism now.

I am a Scot, in Scotland.
It's not perfect, but we have a saying most of us are proud to live by:

'We're #AllJockTamsonsBairns'

We welcome #NewScots.
We are an outward looking nation.
We voted #Remain

We need #ScottishIndependence and a return to the EU.
Starmer's Britain.

Not even subtle.

The problems in our society are not caused by migrants or refugees.

They are caused by an economic system rigged in favour of corporations and billionaires.

If the government wanted to improve people’s lives, it would tax the rich and build an economy that works for us all.

When did this world become SO warped and ugly?
I don’t remember such volatile & uncaring times.
I know we’ve always been at the mercy of men’s egos, their greed and their dysfunctional personalities, but this new breed are off the scale.
Unfortunately, these fuckers ruin it for everybody else!

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
